would you rather be right now obama or romney? >> i would rather be president obama. i mean, look. i think all of us, bill mcinturff and the republicans included, all of us thought this would be a close election. i think the numbers from the poll, they'll look good for the president. the right direction, 41%. people believe the economy is improving. there are other numbers, obviously, which favor mitt romney, but i think given where the economy has been, and where this country has been, to close in the last two weeks with a 41% right direction, that's a pretty good place to be. >> bill, same question to you. >> well, i think president obama is at an advantage, because he has to turnout hispanics, which they're good at. but peter hart, our democrat partner, said something really powerful yesterday. he said, which of these candidates could get 52% of the vote? not 48, 49 and 52. and what he said was, and he's right. it's the challenger, mitt romney. and that tells you that potential that still exists for this race to be a little unexpected. and i think in that way, romney is -- >> yo
